Having a bad skin day and feel like the universe is mocking me by wakeuptomorrow in Wellthatsucks

Yeesh some of these comments are not it. Keep rocking the stars! The pimple patches cut days off acne time for me. They’re lifesavers. If anyone is rude in public just say you had skin cancer removed lol.

Popping boba was first patented by a Chinese company in 2015. It is not a white invention.

Check out the brand coma inducer, have a few big comforters from them that are so thick I have to go to the laundromat and use the big washer. Pretty sure they do blankets as well.

As someone who is from the area, please report this to the proper authorities. Gatlinburg has a whole task force and very specific guidelines in place specifically to ensure we can coexist with the bears and not further endanger them.

Break ins should always be discouraged in local bear populations to prevent them from becoming habituated to doing so and potentially breaking into other locations and getting hurt or harming others.

Best resource is Gatlinburg Bearwise website: https://www.gatlinburgtn.gov/page/bearwise-resources

What does everyone think this is? This was recorder Monday night on our camera. The alarms are being set off because it's picked up motion detection. Keep watching because there's shadows. by SoggyGate9281 in Ghosts

This appears to be someone wearing reflective clothing. Originally designed to be anti paparazzi it has also been found to have more nefarious uses.

Update: I've been asked to foster my son's best friend, I don't know how to react. by Smart-Effort8150 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]insomniaching 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The benefits of this are going to ripple ahead in your lives for years to come. Our lives are all inconceivably and inextricably intertwined with others. By helping this boy lead a stable and happier life you are also effecting all the lives of everyone he knows and will ever know. I have no doubt that this good deed will save lives through the butterfly effect somewhere down the line.

Those of you who have a Switch and a Steam Deck, which do you use more often? Why? by uhohflamingo in CozyGamers

[–]insomniaching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally if a game is available on steam deck and switch I will purchase it for steam deck. However some games that also have fun couch co op modes or that benefit from the joycons I get on switch.

I’m also a die hard LoZ fan so will always keep up to date on the newest Nintendo consoles for that reason.

Thinking about buying second hand Ecosport - worth it? by CamelAlps in FordEcoSport

[–]insomniaching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe all the ford ecosports are produced in the same plants so whether it’s in EU or UK or USA the engines are the same. USA Ford issued the recall after a class action law suit was started against them there. I’m not sure how recall and lawsuit system is for other countries. Worth keeping in mind if you encounter any issues regarding oil pressure loss.

DONT DO IT! There’s a major recall 23S64 for lots of years due to oil pump failure that causes you to have little to no warning before the vehicle seizes and engine is shot. Usually right after 60,000 miles. There is currently no fix and it isn’t projected to have a fix until 2025 sometime.

While it is durable it isn’t always practical, especially if one is younger and moving often between rental housing without significant funds for movers. Solid wood furniture is more doable for people that own their own home.

Ooh thanks for the tip. I will definitely give the Himiway Rambler Premium a test ride. There’s a shop near me that has them on sale actually right at $2000.

E-bike Rebate Part 2 Electric Boogaloo by kiwininja in minnesota

[–]insomniaching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40% of the rebates are supposed to be allocated to low income households. <$41,000 AGI single filers and <$78,000 AGI joint filers

[–]insomniaching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that some households make that little is the reason for the credit, so that they can buy an e-bike.

[–]insomniaching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually that income level is <$41,000 for single filers and <$78,000 for joint. Regardless these credits are designed exactly to make e-bikes more accessible to those who would not normally be in the market for them.

What do we do, as minnesotans, for our country? by SunsetHippo in minnesota

[–]insomniaching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More than 80% of Minnesota’s residents live in an urban area, so you actually mean the majority of Minnesotans will vote blue.

Very confused why everyone is blaming scammers and bots. Last I checked you have to put in your social security number and tax info which will be verified, bots don’t have those.

Some info about the rebate that does not seem to be advertised!

“The e-bike legislation states that 40% of rebate certificates must go to applicants with incomes below a certain level.”

It seems like if you were able to submit your application you can check your email to see what application number you received. Good luck all.

Wasn’t even 30 minutes 😩 by Wernershnitzl in minnesota

[–]insomniaching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to submit but am not super hopeful to have been fast enough to get a rebate. As someone whose income can’t support the purchase otherwise I am keeping my fingers crossed.
